Hi guys, I currently have a 2013 Ford Fusion Hybrid that I have completely gutted the sound system and built a new one with a Pioneer DVD head unit, JL Audio Power amp, separates and subwoofer. I personally built the entire system. It sounds excellent. I am looking to sell my Fusion and buy one of the following 1-3 year old: Toyota Rav4, Honda CR-V or Mazda CX 5 or similar but those 3 are the front runners. My question is, of those 3, are there any I should stay away from because of the difficulty building a "better than stock" system for? My fusion was a huge pain mostly because nobody made a dash kit for it for the first 4 or so years. Finally Metra came out with one that is expensive and complicated. I would like to take some or all of my system from the Fusion with me because I don't think leaving it will get me any additional $ in a sale. I kept the original head unit for that reason. Any advice appreciated. Thanks in advance.
